Don't people ever realize there is no way the timing can change on an engine without human intervention? Or am I missing something?
Years ago, when I was in the boat and outboard motor repair business people would bring in an outboard motor that wasn't running right. They'd almost always say it's acting like the timing is off. Even with an engine with the timing built in so there was no way it could be changed.
One guy brought in a 90 hp Johnson engine with the distributor driven by a notched belt. The guy had pulled the belt himself and drastically changed the timing. When I set the timing back according to the marks on the distributor pulley and engine block, he insisted there was absolutely no way the engine would run that way. While he was watching, I replaced the spark plugs, put a hose adapter on the lower unit for cooling, and fired it up. It purred like it was supposed to. He paid the bill and still argued that it wasn't timed right.
About 90% of the time, it was simply worn out spark plugs.
